Cheesman Park is an amazingly serene, breathtaking place where you can learn so much about nature. It's a place not to be rushed. When you visit, take your time. You can't take it in all in one day... I spent half a day at Cheesman Park with my son who requested to go back the next day! Such a beautiful place

Love this park! So great that they blocked cars from driving through out the park. Had made it so much more peaceful and way more enjoyable. Always like having a picnic, walking the dogs, and people watching here!
